Twink Pink Fairies from London's Ladbroke Grove area, The history was long...

In August 1969 The Deviants went on a tour of the USA and Canada.
Their leader was Mark Farren, section chief of the British anarchist
party White Panther Party, and later a journalist NME. During the tour
had been poured out Mike Farren, who returned to England, and together
with the Twinkie and Steve Tookie (ex-Rex) have made a few appearances
under the name The Pink Fairies. The first such concert took place in
October 1969 in Manchester University. The name was taken from a
motorcycle gang, in which we all went. This was to be an underground
supergroup based on the principles of partnership. Mike Farren sang,
played guitar Took and Twink perkusił. Girl Twink, Silver Darling play
the keyboards, which also gave the bass. The first gigs were so amazing
that they actually were not. Announced the group, and then strum a jam,
and ended up talking in the audience. It ended in November 1969. In
addition to these concerts strange Farren, Took and Twink were working
on solo album Farren Mona The Carnivorous Circus.

In the early 1970's Twink understood that nothing will reach the
court and in March 1970 formed a new group of musicians based on The
Deviants, who also helped in the recording Farrenowi solo album Mona
Carnivorous Circus. Twink captures three musicians exploded The
Deviants, Farren and gets rid of the composition of The Pink Fairies
stabilized.

In January 1971 the single issue of The Snake / Do It. In the May
1971 issue the first album Never Never Land for Polydor. The team plays
in the composition of Russell Hunter (drums), Paul Rudolph (guitar,
vocals), Duncan Sanderson (bass, vocals), Twink (vocals, drums). Album
produced Twink and Neil Slaven. The demo consisted of 10 tracks. It was
not anything special. Critics have passed them to the dying psychedelia.
The interesting thing was just part contains two professional drummers,
but Twink served as lead singer. The two songs they played at
Glastonbury, Do It (later recorded by Rollins Band) and 20 minute
version of Uncle Harry's Last Freak-Out. As the album did not catch on
in 1971 Twink colleagues said goodbye after a visit to Morocco, he
settled in Cambridge.

The remaining trio has recorded the 1972 album What A
Bunch Of Sweeties with the help of vocalist and guitarist Trevor
Burton, known for The Move. Polydor album released in July 1972. The
band has recorded, among others, cover of The Beatles, I Saw Her
Standing There. No racial singer and weak instruments meant that the
album was not the best, but ironically, though perhaps not the best
word, entered the British charts (# 48). The same year, Rudolph left the
group to play with Hawkwind and was replaced by Mick Wayne from
Junior's Eyes. Group in November released a single, Well Well Well /
Hold On, but without success. In 1973 they recorded another album, but
instead he was playing Larry Wayne Willis (guitar, vocals, ex-Blodwyn
Pig, UFO). Album Kings of Oblivion came out of a Polydor in June 1973.
With Willis things have gone better, because he wrote almost all of the
material and knew how to sing. As a result, this album has collected
good reviews.

In 1974 the band ceased to exist. Names of The
Deviants and Pink Fairies, however, occasionally popping up at various
meetings of members of these teams. For example, in 1977 they released
EP Supported by a team Mike Farren & The Deviants, which produced
Willis, and line up consisted of Rudolph and Andy Colqhoun (the Warsaw
Pact).

Cambridge period he spent on the game with various bands, including
Last Minute Put Together Boogie Band, in which American singer Bruce
Payne, known for his performance in the original American version of the
musical Hair. The musicians have taken place with the joint cavity
Sydem Barrett.

Working with Barrett Sydem arranged on so well that Twink and Syd
founded his own band The Stars. Apart from a few public appearances, but
nothing came of it.

The Stars led defeat Twink transfer to
London. This period was full of different musical events, with the
greatest success, however, were occasional appearances with Hawkwind.

The decision was made to reactivate The Pink
Fairies. They took her, Twink, Rudolph, Wallis, Hunter and Sanderson.
For this reason, Polydor released in July 1975 a compilation of
previously recorded three albums. From the only group show at London's
Chalk Farm Roundhouse, born live album Live At The Roundhouse, however,
only released in June 1982. Play together, but would end up at one gig,
which lasted about 6 months, Twink because he had a car accident which
sidelined him from life for a while.

The rest went on, but they did not go completely. In September 1976
they released the single Between the Lines / spoiling for a Fight.
That's it. Held a farewell tour in 1977. They played the Sanderson,
Wallis and Hunter. Then they came to Martin Stone (ex-Chilli Willi And
The Red Hot Peppers). played a little time and

officially disbanded in 1977 or 1978.

In 1984, Wallis
published a mini-album with the Previously Released Sanderson and George
Butler (The Deviants), Supported by The Pink Fairies.

In 1986
he returned to recording solo single, releasing his own record label
Apocalipstic for Twink. He appeared in TV series Allo Allo, David
Copperfield and Chocky's Challenge.

Also in 1986, was reborn again with the band The Pink Fairies. The
line up consisted of Wallis, Sanderson, Hunter, Twink and Colqhoun.
Without Rudolph, but Wallis recorded their album Kill 'Em' N 'Eat' Em,
released in October 1987, after which they disappeared from the scene
for good. At concerts he met band members Twink Plasticland.

In 1989, cooperation with Plasticland. Recording the album You Need A Fairy Godmother.

Twink
recorded as The Pink Fairies with Paul Rudolph. In 1996 they released
album, Pleasure Island, and in 1997 the album No Picture.

Very good Pleasure Island 1996 Pink Fairies reunion effort,this
title was released by drummer Twink's own label,Twink Records of a
limited edition of 1,000 copies. So,obviously 'Pleasure Island' is often
hard to find. Don't think it's ever been reissued after that. Looks
like 'Pleasure...' has just just two players, of Twink-drums and Paul
Rudolph-bass&vocalist. Couldn't tell you if anyone else appeared on
this CD or not. 'Pleasure...' is some fine psych/raw punk with an edge
to it. "As Above,So Below" is basic well played '70's rock and roll
revived. I found "Man With A Golden Gun" to be somewhat refreshing and
"Jungle Drums" shows you,just what Twink is truly capable of. For a true
mind-blower,put on the headphones to fully experience the 32-minute
"Cargoe In Jamaica".
